3 4. First aid measures 4.1. Description of first aid measures General In all cases of doubt, or when symptoms persist, seek medical attention. Never give anything by mouth to an unconscious person. Inhalation Not a likely route of exposure. If inhaled, remove to fresh air. If not breathing, give artificial respiration. If breathing is difficult, give oxygen. Seek prompt medical attention. Eyes Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. Continue rinsing. If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/attention. Not a probable route of exposure. Skin Wash with soap and warm water. Clean clothing thoroughly and dispose of shoe contaminated with explosive in accordance with explosive disposal procedures. Get medical attention for rash or irritation. Ingestion Not a probable route of exposure; seek medical advice if ingested Most important symptoms and effects, both acute and delayed Overview The product is Division 1.1 explosive, and detonation may cause severe physical injury, including death. All explosives are dangerous and must be handled carefully and used following approved safety procedures under the direction of competent, experienced persons in accordance with all applicable federal, state and local laws, regulations, and ordinances. Ingestion of NONA may cause disorders or epiliptiform seizures. None of the components of NONA are listed as a carcinogen by NTP, IARC, or OSHA. See section 2 for further details. Skin Ingestion Causes mild skin irritation. Harmful if swallowed. 5. Fire-fighting measures 5.1. Extinguishing media Water sprinkler/deluge system recommended. Do not attempt to manually extinguish fires. Burning explosives may accelerate to a detonation at any time when subjected to confinement, shock or other sufficient initiations source. Personnel should leave the building immediately using as much protective cover as possible and activated deluge systems and fire alarm equipment while escaping Special hazards arising from the substance or mixture Hazardous decomposition: Carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxides. Keep away from heat / sparks / open flames / hot surfaces - No smoking. Do not subject to grinding/shock/friction. Avoid breathing dust / fume / mist / vapor / spray. Page 3 of 9

4 5.3. Advice for fire-fighters FLASH POINT:. FLAMMABLE LIMITS:. EXTINGUISHING MEDIA: See below. SPECIAL FIREFIGHTING PROCEDURES: ALL EXPLOSIVES: DO NOT FIGHT EXPLOSIVES FIRES. Try to keep fire from reaching explosives. Isolate Area. Guard against intruders. Withdraw personnel immediately. Allow fire to burn itself out. Division 1.1 Explosives: Evacuate the area for 5000 feet (1 mile). Consult the 2012 Emergency Response Guidebook, Guide 112 for further details. UNUSUAL FIRE AND EXPLOSION HAZARDS: May explode when subjected to fire or shock. Avoid toxic fumes from fire. Do not smother. 6. Accidental release measures 6.1. Personal precautions, protective equipment and emergency procedures Put on appropriate personal protective equipment (see section 8) Environmental precautions Do not allow spills to enter drains or waterways. Use good personal hygiene practices. Wash hands before eating, drinking, smoking or using toilet. Promptly remove soiled clothing and wash thoroughly before reuse Methods and material for containment and cleaning up STEPS TO BE TAKEN IN CASE MATERIAL IS RELEASED OR SPILLED: Add compatible solvent such as water to dilute and desensitize. Absorb material onto a rag. Dispose of as hazardous waste. Avoid pinching material, metal to metal contact, and impact with sharp objects, friction or other situations which may initiate the explosive. Avoid sand, glass, grit and metal fragments which may sensitize the material to impact and or friction. Protect from all ignition sources. Sweep up and dispose of all spilled material immediately. Only competent, experienced persons should be involved in cleanup procedures. Do not permit smoking or open flames near spill site. WASTE DISPOSAL METHOD: Dispose of under direct supervision of a qualified person according to local, state and federal regulations. This material may become a hazardous waste as defined under the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) 40 CFR, parts , and must be collected, labeled and disposed of per state and federal hazardous waste regulations. 7.
